Default D-series intake manifold with straight runners?

I want to buy a used intake manifold with straight runners for my ITB project. I don`t want to use a stock d-series intake manifold since the runners bend and unequal amounts of air will be distributed in each cylinders, don`t want that. I wanted to know what company makes cheap IM with straight runners. I don`t mind the colour or the design. I would appreciate it if you guys could provide a price range aswell. Thanks in advance.

that`s exactly what I`m looking for. I will start looking around just to see if there are any used ones for sale. Is that a fuel rail mount I see in the pic?
thanks for the pic!

You know for being a piece of crap OBX, it sure looks like a quality intake.

I've used them 2 or 3 times now. The runners are straight with a small velocity stack inside the collector at the top of each.
The downside, the TB bracket has always been a little off, but other than that, they work well. I sold one to QuadDamage here on his boosted D, he had it ported afterwords and has had great results

If you cut the manifold right at the injector mounting it's pretty damn straight





But it's a lot easier to get that mani and cut it and clamp on your tb's I guess lol.

How do those obx manifolds like the polished one posted here perform for normal NA applicantions? Ive thought of getting one to use with a b16a TB I have laying around but I have never seen anyone post saying they use one and they like it. From the way it looks it would probably only be good for boost. Anyone?
